This space is a little unusual - loft bed with steep stairs, fourth floor walk up, down an anonymous alley. The walk from BTS Saphan Taksin is 10 - 15 minutes and can feel a little crowded, noisy, and polluted. It's also a far cry from the touristy farang neighborhoods - mostly workers commuting on motorbike taxis in the morning and evenings.

I recommend this spot to anyone who feels comfortable traveling in Bangkok, or someone who wants to see just a regular part of the city, untouched by tourism or big business. The Queens of Bangkok if you will.

Some good street eating nearby, and quite convenient to the river taxi and the Oriental - Shangri La stretch. And when you can take a side soi off Charoen Krung, the neighborhood has fantastic little gems - markets, storefronts, etc - as all of Bangkok does if you look hard enough.
